Valve Cover

 –Before installing the valve cover the weather seal must be installed.  The seal is installed by 

removing the paper backing from the adhesive side and then, starting at the midpoint of one of the legs, attach the 

seal to the frame.  Work your way around the frame with the seal as close to the inside edge as possible and then up 

the other leg to the halfway point. At this time cut any extra foam seal as needed. Repeat for other side on ES2.

 

N.

 

Attaching Valve – (Ultrafount ES2 only) 

Installing the valve assembly before attaching the cover is preferred. 

(See Diagram) To attach the valve, you will need a 3/8” socket with driver. Align holes of white valve bracket with 

the holes on the trough tab, as shown at right.  Securely tighten the screw being careful to not over tighten and strip 

out plastic valve bracket.

Attaching the Cover – (Ultrafount ES2 only) 

Install the cover assembly as shown in picture on right. Align 

holes of the cover with holes in casing behind the valve.  Using the supplied 3/16” hex wrench tighten the screws 

until there is a 1/8” gap between the cover and the base on both sides of the cover. Some adjustment may be required 

if the thumb screw does not align with the locking groove on the front of the fountain.
